I started with a piece of Old Olive Cardstock sized
6 1/2 x 5 1/2"
I scored the 6 1/2" side at:
1, 2 3/4, 3 3/4 and 5 1/2"
I scored the 5 1/2" side at:
1/2, 2 1/2 and 1".
To cut and put the box together you can watch my Video Tutorial Here.
Below is a picture of how your Cardstock should look after scoring and cutting.
I attached 6 pieces of Take a Bow Designer Series Paper to the box.
(1) 1 5/8 x 2 1/4" front of box
(1) 1 1/2 x 2 1/4" back of box
(2) 3/4 x 2 1/4" long sides
(2) 1 1/2 x 3/4" short sides
I cut out (2) 1 1/2 x 2 1/8" rectangles using the Nested Essentials dies. One from Basic White Cardstock and one from Take a Bow DSP.
I stamped the sentiment, from Humble Home stamp set, onto the bottom of the Basic White rectangle with Real Red Ink.
I cut the sentiment off the rectangle and attached it to the bottom of the DSP rectangle with Liquid Glue.
I stamped the Mouse, from Christmas Friends stamp set, onto Basic White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink and cut it out using the matching dies.
I colored the image with Stampin' Blends.
Light & Dark Smokey Slate - Mouse
Light Bubble Bath - Cheeks and Nose
Dark Daffodil Delight - Bell
Dark Old Olive - Book
Dark Real Red - Bow
I attached the mouse to the rectangle with Dimensionals.
I wound Red & White Baker's Twine around the short side of the rectangle, right above the sentiment, and tied a bow on the left.
I attached the entire rectangle to the box with Dimensionals.
For the final touch I added 3 Iridescent Faceted Gems to the front of the box.
